B1078329610 (Ed. 04/98) For All the CommitoNrtts You Maki THIS ENDORSEMENT CHANGES THE POLICY. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY. CONTRACTOR'S BLANKET ADDITIONAL INSURED ENDORSEMENT This endorsement modifies insurance provided under the following: COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY COVERAGE PART A. WHO IS AN INSURED (Section 11) is amended to include as an insured any person or organization (called additional insured) whom you are required to add as an additional insured on this policy under: 1. A written contract or agreement; or 2. An oral contract or agreement where a certificate of insurance showing that person or organization as an additional insured has been issued; but the written or oral contract or agreement must be: 1. Currently in effector becoming effective during the term of this policy; and 2. Executed prior to the "bodily injury," "property damage," "personal injury" or "advertising injury." B. The insurance provided to the additional insured is limited as follows: 1. That person or organization is only an additional insured with respect to liability arising out of: a. Your premises; b. "Your work" for that additional insured; or c. Acts or omissions of the additional insured in connection with the general supervision of 'your work." C. 2. The Limits of Insurance applicable to the additional insured are those specified in the written contract or agreement or in the Declarations for this policy, whichever is less. These Limits of Insurance are inclusive and not in addition to the Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations. 3. Except when required by contract or agreement, the coverage provided to the additional insured by this endorsement does not apply to: a. "Bodily injury" or "property damage" occurring after: (1) All work on the project (other than service, maintenance or repairs) to be performed by or on behalf of the additional insured at the site of the covered operations has been completed; or G-1 7957-F (Ed. 04/98) (2) That portion of 'your work" out of which the injury or damage arises has been put to its intended use by any person or organization other than another contractor or subcontractor engaged in performing operations for a principal as part of the same project. b. "Bodily injury" or "property damage" arising out of acts or omissions of the additional Insured other than in connection with the general supervision of 'your work." 4. The insurance provided to the additional insured does not apply to "bodily injury," "property damage," "personal injury," or "advertising injury" arising out of an architect's, engineer's, or surveyor's rendering of or failure to render any professional services including: a. The preparing, approving, or failing to prepare or approve maps, shop drawings, opinions, reports, surveys, field orders, change orders or drawings and specifications; and b. Supervisory, or inspection activities performed as part of any related architectural or engineering activities. As respects the coverage provided under this endorsement, Paragraph 4.b. SECTION IV — COMMERCIAL GENERAL LIABILITY CONDITIONS is amended with the addition of the following: 4. Other Insurance b. Excess Insurance This insurance is excess over: Any other valid and collectible insurance available to the additional insured whether primary, excess, contingent or on any other basis unless a contract specifically requires that this insurance be either primary or primary and noncontributing. Where required by contract, we will consider any other insurance maintained by the additional insured for injury or damage covered by this endorsement to be excess and noncontributing with this insurance. Page 1 of 1 (1) The total amount that all such other insurance would pay for the loss in the absence of this insurance; and (2) The total of all deductible and self-insured amounts under all that other insurance. We will share the remaining loss, if any, with any other insurance that is not described in this Excess Insurance provision and was not bought specifically to apply in excess of the Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations of this Coverage Part. c. Method of Sharing If all of the other insurance permits contribution by equal shares, we will follow this method also. Under this approach each insurer contributes equal amounts until it has paid its applicable limit of insurance or none of the loss remains, whichever comes first. If any of the other insurance does not permit contribution by equal shares, we will contribute by limits. Under this method, each insurer's share is based on the ratio of its applicable limit of insurance to the total applicable limits of insurance of all insurers. 5. Premium Audit. a. We will compute all premiums for this Coverage Part in accordance with our rules and rates. b. Premium shown in this Coverage Part as advance premium is a deposit premium only, At the close of each audit period we will compute the earned premium for that period. Audit premiums are due and payable on notice to the first Named Insured. If the sum of the advance and audit premiums paid for the policy term is greater than the earned premium, we will return the excess to the first Named Insured. c. The first Named Insured must keep records of the information we need for premium computation, and send us copies at such times as we may request. 6. Representations. By accepting this policy, you agree: a. The statements in the Declarations are accurate and complete; b. Those statements are based upon representations you made to us; and c. We have issued this policy in reliance upon your representations. 7. Separation Of Insureds. CG 00 01 11 88 a. As if each Named Insured were the only Named Insured; and b. Separately to each insured against whom claim is made or "suit" is brought. B. Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others To Us. If the insured has rights to recover all or part of any payment we have made under this Coverage Part, those rights are transferred to us. The insured must do nothing after loss to impair them. At our request, the insured will bring "suit" or transfer those rights to us and help us enforce them. 9. When We Do Not Renew. If we decide not to renew this Coverage Part, we will mail or deliver to the first Named Insured shown in the Declarations written notice of the nonrenewal not less than 30 days before the expiration date. If notice is mailed, proof of mailing will be sufficient proof of notice. SECTION V — DEFINITIONS 1. "Advertising injury" means injury arising out of one or more of the following offenses: a. Oral or written publication of material that slanders or libels a person or organization or disparages a person's or organization's goods, products or services; b.
